The day spent with Hosny visiting the step, red and bent pyramids + Memphis was great. Hosny is an Egyptologist, so very knowledgeable and he presented a lot of information in an interesting way. We had a fun time, took lots of photos and saw local carpet weaving which was fascinating. We would highly recommend this tour.

We just returned from 5 days in Cairo where we did several tours. Have to say that the one with took with Hosni to Memphis, Sakkara and Dahshur, with an impromptu visit to 'garbage city' and the monetary in the area was by far the best. Hosni was knowledgeable, kind and a pleasure to be with for the day. If we could give him a 10 star review we would. Thank you Hosni for making our tour with you one we will never forget.

Vert nice tour and guide . I would prefer to extend the tour to old Museum of Cairo vut the visit to perfume and papiro shops took too much time .
Dear Marta, thank you so much for your feedback which is truly valued and highly appreciated. The tour was only including visiting the Giza Pyramids and the Grand Egyptian Museum and then you have been offered some other extras like visiting the Papyrus shop, the perfumery and lunch and you accept that by your sheer force of will, moreover you stopped at another shop to get other souvenirs and then you firstly wanted to get to the bazaar and the guide said that we could drop you off there and few minutes later you changed your mind and asked whether we could make you visit the Egyptian museum which wasn’t possible because it was late and it was also a rush hour. If you weren’t interested in shopping, you should’ve asked to skip it and tell the guide that you wanted to add a visit to the old museum instead and we would be more than happy to do it if time permits. We promise you to customize your next tour and itinerary to meet your needs and expectations. Thank you so much for choosing Egypt as your travel destination and thanks for choosing Egypt Paradise Tours to come on a holiday with.
